Lies by commission, lies by omission, obfuscations, and general being 'economical with the truth' -- before, during, and since -- the invasion and occupation of Iraq.No surprise: it is said that the first casualty of war is truth.Is there a fiddling of the numbers, deliberately understating the growing list of fatalities among US military?Update.
